wow thats pretty damn low!! watch out for the speed bumps!! lol

and clean it :p
 
I think if you pull it 3-4 cm up it would be better :(
 
looks good wheels and a drop are the two best cosmetic things i can think of to change the look of the car without going over the top with a body kit.
BUT
i spoke to a honda mecanic after lowering my ek4 b16a2 and he told me that lowering the car puts more pressure on other parts of the suspension and your bushes will wear quicker.
Your handling will improve if u drop it 20mm any more i woulnt recomend, as my bushes went on my car 8 monthes after the drop but that mite be partly due to age.

But if ur mainly going for looks go for it
 
Starry makes a good point about the bushings. When the car is lowered the bushings must be reset to prolong their life.
Read step #4 carefully, it explains the procedure.

Civic-Vtec I think the car is too low for good functionality in both street driving and handling.
But if you like how it looks and you don't care what we say just keep it that way.
 
beautiful car mate! congratulations :)
 
nice lowered car....makes me wanna lowered my car more...hehehe :D how's the feeling on bumps....? good luck on ramps and speedbumps.....:) what coilover and shocks are you using?
 
Its not bumpy at all really. Im using D2 coilovers:)
 
good for u................for me......i wouldn't lower the whole bodykit down, maybe lowering by 2-3cm from original height thn put a beautiful done custom made (carbon or non-carbon) diffuser muahaaha.........juz a theory though hehe
 
drive shafts must be on a hell of an angle? not good for your cv joints.:(
 
Thanks:D Yep new cv joint went into it last week thats only cause I warped it when I lifted off a bump on 2nd gear in vtec and when the wheels gripped the road it buckled:D
